Well for a start, you should remove anything like smoking rocks or any other skill related randoms as the amount you get is directly assosiated with how much you train the skill.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

With the other ones again it is all about what you do with the time that you have in the gajme i for one dont think that you will get anything from just standing still, so its hard to make a list.

- My skills are now really, really lame ! Time to fix that! -

I find that if I'm in the midst of combat -- (fighing something either melee or range), and I alch a drop for the gp, I often get a random the next second after clicking on "cast high alchemy on..."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

so yes, they are "randoms" but they often come up when you change behavior as well. I'd love to know how exactly they (jagex) determines this, but macroers obviously would love to know this as well, so I'll prefer to remain ignorant

RSN: Greedom1 | QP 248+ | Combat 116 | Total 1920+ | Skills 95 craft, 99 farm, 88 herb, 91 mage, 85 slayer

Values? What do they mean?

I've never had a mime, little sad :(

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I get the majority of my randoms when i'm sitting still, not moving the camera angles, fighting or typing over and over in world 2.
